outfucking skilled

Read description, summon them and watch how they are fighting?

Why would I want to summon them?

Then not summon them.

How do we know how anything works? Try it out and see what happens.

I best the game so outside of testing wolves once, can't say I have a favorite since I never used them. How's it feel having an AI beat the game for you? Pathetic jej

Only one I've ever used is the sleep arrow kinochad to nuke Godkin Duo on repeat playthrough because it is legitimately the worst from bost to exist, so fuck it. But ydbtg of you used ashes on your first playthrough. Bleed + frost katanas or bloodhound too.

>not playing the game on pacifist mode by only buffing your summons and keeping them healed
You already know what I'm going to say.

The durahan woman, Luthel, is pretty boss. her ranged attack deals a lot of poise damage and she can teleport-tank through some strong attacks.

Are there any good group summons? I find that their lower individual health pools make it so they get wiped by AoEs quickly.

I love these little guys like you wouldn't believe.

Also I love how the icon looks just like the 'cool guys in movie running from explosion' thing

I’m not at my computer right now, but the old decrepit sorcerer guy. I have him at +5, and he does shit damage but goddamn I love him. Also has a surprisingly high health pool.

Well done, old codger!

I've been watching someone do a summon fight pit and this guy kicks ass

I've been using Ogha a bunch. She's great fun, especially since the greatarrows often knock down anything that isn't a large enemy.

based koolaid man summoner

>using summons
>further handicapping you from learning bosses moveset and gitting gud
Why?

YDBTG

No memes but mimic is honestly such a cool mechanic

I was struggling on first play with Malenia and Godskins, used str build. Then used rebirth, got mimic tear +10, ROB +10 and skullfucked game lmao. at lvl 110, Malenia didn't even use the slashing three part combo. Beat Godfrey in similar fashion.

Felt like shit and didn't think I beat the game so I went for full str melee only no summons play after that. Finished the game in half the time but was way better.

Idk, I wish I wasn't like that and wouldn't mind playing with summons.

Why would I play anything other than a mage with summons in this game? Why would I play anything other than a mage in any Souls game? The amount of games where magic is viable or even a thing in the first place versus the sea of games where you just mash attack buttons makes me not even consider melee builds in these games. If I wanted git gud games I'd play hack and slash games.

for me, it's the lord of limgrave

If you didn't use summons, then you didn't beat the game.

>Actually fighting it out against recycled bosses and bosses turned into duos/trios over and over
Why?

>using weapons, clothing or flasks
>further handicapping you from learning bosses moveset and gitting gud
Why?

my issue with mimic tear isnt how broken it is for pve. my issue is its so much more better than any other summon i have no reason to use the other ones

why are only eldencucks this butthurt about others adapting and beating the game in their own fashion?

Didnt happen with Sekiro or DS3 or Bloodborne. None of this "you didnt beat the game" bullshit.
I was 15 hours on Malenia btw, no summons but I wouldnt shit on someone using summons

I was playing a pure STR unga bunga build and he was my favorite too since i could tank while he snipes from behind
Sadly for some reason the retarded devs made the spirit ashes teleport to you if you get too far from them
Other than that i used this one to clear mobs since he can proc bleed

What? This whole shit started with Dark Souls when people were shitting on players who upgraded gear, used magic or even just used a shield. The post-Artorias Souls fanbase cemented the take.

Only if you're an Unga Bunga build since Mimic is a fucking retard.

ER is THE normie game now. It's no different than BO2 lobby people seething at you because you slaughter everyone else with a knife.

Greatshield boys straight bouncing boss swings

Skeleton summons. Games seem to be against letting me be a Necromancer these days, so I have to take what I can get.

>try to fight Maliena
>use Ogha for fire support
>just lays out the rot bitch for free hits with every greatbow shot
Where does it indicate that Ogha is a woman? They can't have ALL the legendary Spirit Ashes (save Mimic and Kristoff) be women.

It doesn't, but a cute knight girl who grew up with Radahn would be cool. Ogha's war cry also doesn't seem to have any sound, so you wouldn't be able to tell either way.

I love my tall faceless murder gf.

>dual bosses
>noo you can't use dopelganger
Embarrassing

>now
AHAHHHAAHAH. Delusional

Yeah I remember that now. But I don't think it was of that high magnitude, or was it?

Is it because Elden ring has bigger build variability/more OP builds? It seems kinda retarded to shit on people for using item in game.

Not only do I use summons on every boss fight, I also use the mod that lets me summon them anywhere, even outside of designated summon areas.

Black Knives (and Melina) are just clones of Ranni.

It's Staggering Time!

Tiche is so good

I wish they let it keep using items like it used to.

You're a fucking moron. The Black Knives are a pseudo-faction of Numen assassins and mercenaries from the Eternal Cities. Ranni is just the child of Radagon and Marika. The Numen assassins obviously existed long, long before Ranni was born.

Nice fanfiction, got a source to back that up?

>Game is finally not an autistic roll and poke simulator
>Now you have a shitton of different stuff to try
>All that new stuff.
>Retards still want you to beat the game naked with a wretch
Everytime

>Fight Radagon and Elden beast for a while
>Get Radagon down a few times but not consistently for me to learn how to defeat Elden beast
>Alright might just summon on him
>Upgrade Tiche and try her out
>Defeat Radagon with ease
>Well alright she's strong
>Get to Spirit beast
>She starts wailing at him taking off huge chunks of health
>Spirit beast is dying and Tiche is taking almost no damage
>Panic and kill myself before she solos him

That's what you get for trying out summons I guess

My nigga. Getting him was really worth the hassle.

>Retards still want you to beat the game naked with a wretch
This isn't even the biggest challenge. Heavy weapons are way riskier than a basic club.

legit laughed holy shit

Lmao
